Dinap (trucks)

Dinap 1200

Dinap (ΔΗΝΑΠ, D. Apostolopoulos O.E.) was one of the smaller Greek machine and truck manufacturers with its factory on Liosion St., in Athens. The Dinap 1200 was a three-wheel truck produced in the second half of the 1960s. It was powered by a 1200cc, 34 hp (25 kW) air-cooled Volkswagen engine and could legally carry 1,000 kg (2,205 lb). This load was higher than the equivalent for most other three-wheel trucks, but this made little difference since those vehicles were frequently loaded with up to 3 tons!
